Author Notes:Nothing says "summer" like a Maine lobster roll. It is so easy, but super luxurious & special. You can use left- over lobster meat from a previous feast or you can buy a lobster or two & add them to boiling water for 3-4 minutes until the lobster shell turns pink. Then remove the meat. You can also buy already cooked/shelled lobster meat from your local fish market. —we eat. happy.

Makes: 4 rolls

2
cups cooked Maine lobster meat, chopped

2-3
tablespoons Vegenaise or your favorite mayonnaise

6
basil leaves, thinly sliced

1
teaspoon Dijon or grainy mustard

sea salt & cracked pepper

sweet paprika for garnishing

4
split-top hot dog rolls

a drizzle of olive oil or a knob of butter

In a large bowl, mix together the lobster meat, Vegenaise, basil, mustard & seasoning.

Meanwhile, over medium heat add oil or butter to a cast iron pan. Lay the rolls on there side. Toast until golden on each side.

Fill the rolls with the lobster meat & sprinkle with paprika (you can use a small sifter or like, me, a mesh tea steeper/infuser).
